(1972 125hp johnson) Hey guys quick question, I just need to know if anybody knows the configuration in which the the wires on the forward reverse switch need voltage to control shifting. blue green and purple I think, I just don't know which voltage get's supplied to which ones and when to make it shift. I only ask because I built a new forward reverse switch myself and just need to know how to configure the wiring for the switch. thanks alot.

There are some errors on that post. Joe Reeves got it right. Green for neutral, both green and blue for reverse. Default is forward with no electric input.
